Description
A funeral in the small town of Torrelodones marks the burial of Julio Carrión González, a man of great wealth and influence. His son Alvaro is left with more questions than answers when a mysterious woman arrives at the graveside. The family's inheritance of a large sum of money sparks further curiosity, leading Alvaro to discover an old folder containing letters from his father in Russia, faded photos, and a locked metal box. The woman, Raquel Fernández Perea, is revealed to be the daughter of Spaniards who fled during the Civil War. Her past has left a lasting impact, and her fate is now tied to the secrets of Julio's life. As Alvaro delves deeper into his family's history, he uncovers a complex web of relationships and loyalties that span from Spain to Russia. The Frozen Heart is a sweeping epic saga that explores the devastating effects of war on families and communities. Against this backdrop of conflict and loss, the novel raises questions about faith, loyalty, and the enduring power of human connection.
